## Pricing

from $5.25 / 1,000 quote delivereds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Google Finance Quotes: price, change and key stats per ticker

Stock quotes from Google Finance, up to 200 tickers per run: last price, currency, change, market state, after-hours price, open, high, low, market cap, volume, dividend yield, P/E, 52-week range, EPS, beta, shares outstanding, employees, sector and headquarters. Pay per quote.

### Why this scraper

- **Only delivered results are charged.** Inputs that fail come back as clear error
  records at no cost.
- Read straight from the Google Finance quote page, no browser: one request per ticker. Measured on six tickers across Nasdaq, NYSE, Amsterdam, London and Tokyo: every one with name, price, currency, change, open, high, low, market cap, volume, EPS, employees, founded, headquarters and sector, for about a tenth of a cent each.
- Any exchange Google Finance covers, in the exchange's own currency (USD, EUR, GBX, JPY), with the after-hours price when the US market is closed, the ex-dividend date as an ISO date and the market cap, volume and share count as plain numbers instead of "4.84T". A bare US symbol is resolved across NASDAQ, NYSE and NYSEARCA. No people: the CEO shown on the page is not delivered.

### Who this is for

Paste tickers in `tickers` as SYMBOL:EXCHANGE (AAPL:NASDAQ, ASML:AMS, VOD:LON, 7203:TYO; up to 200 per run), or a bare US symbol, or a Google Finance quote URL. Indexes (.INX:INDEXSP, .DJI:INDEXDJX), currency pairs (EUR-USD) and crypto pairs (BTC-USD) work the same way; they carry the price header and, for indexes, open, high, low and the 52-week range, and leave the company fields empty. Every row carries the ticker, name, last price, currency, change, change percent, market state, quote time, after-hours price, open, high, low, market cap, volume, average volume, dividend yield, quarterly dividend, ex-dividend date, P/E, 52-week high and low, EPS, beta, shares outstanding, employees, founded, headquarters, sector, website and the source URL.

### Who this is not for

This is a quote snapshot at run time, not a stream; Google's page is delayed like the site itself. Fields Google does not show for a listing stay empty: after-hours only for US stocks outside market hours, beta and P/E only where Google computes them (Vodafone had no P/E, Toyota no beta on 16-09-2026), website only when Google lists one. London prices come in pence (`GBX`), as on Google Finance. The quote time is Google's text ("Sep 15, 4:00:01 PM GMT-4"), not an ISO timestamp. A ticker Google does not know comes back as one free `NOT_FOUND` error row.

### Input example

```json
{
    "tickers": [
        "AAPL:NASDAQ",
        "ASML:AMS",
        "MSFT"
    ]
}
```

### Pricing

Pay per event: one `quote-delivered` event per delivered result. No charge for inputs
that fail, no separate platform-usage surcharge.

**Free Apify plan:** this actor delivers up to 25 rows per run for accounts on the Apify free
plan, and then stops with a message. That limit is set by us, not by Apify. It exists so the
actor keeps paying for itself for the people who do pay. Any paid Apify plan runs it at full
size, billed per delivered row, with failed rows never charged.

**Reviews:** if this actor saves you time, a short review on this page is the one thing that
helps most. Ratings are what other buyers look at first, and we have no other way to ask.

### FAQ

**Which exchange codes work?** Google Finance's own: NASDAQ, NYSE, NYSEARCA, AMS, LON, EPA, FRA, ETR, TYO, HKG, TSE and the rest as shown in the quote URL on google.com/finance.

**Can I pass just AAPL?** Yes. A bare symbol is tried on NASDAQ, then NYSE, then NYSEARCA; the first hit is delivered. Non-US symbols need the exchange.

**Are the numbers plain?** Yes. Market cap, volume and shares are full numbers (4.84T becomes 4840000000000), percentages are numbers without the sign (0.33% becomes 0.33), dates are ISO.

**Do I pay for unknown tickers?** No. Only a delivered quote is charged.

**How often can I run it?** As often as you like; a scheduled daily run builds a price and fundamentals history per ticker.

**Is personal data collected?**
`marketState` is `open` while the exchange trades and `closed` otherwise; `asOf` is the quote time Google prints next to the price.

**What happens when the source changes?**
Sources change from time to time; that is the nature of this work. The actor is
monitored daily and fixed fast, and while it is broken you are not charged, because
only delivered results cost anything.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
